Features

One system. Every seat gets exactly what it needs.

Pakka runs the whole project — estimation, field capture, QC, vendor money, and the client — with strict, role-gated visibility. Here is everything it does, by who uses it.

Owner / Admin

The whole firm before coffee.

One morning read of the entire business — cash, health, and what needs you today — with the money bands admin-only.

Owner’s Cockpit — a five-band morning read with a 30-day cash view, needs-attention, project health, people & vendor scorecards.
Org-wide P&L rollup across every project.
Delay-attribution analytics — evidence-backed cause and party, with fairness guards.
The /ask org brain on WhatsApp — “which vendor causes most rework?” over your own history.
Pre-start hard gate — block work until the site-condition record + client acknowledgment exist.
8 roles, per-member “can view financials” toggle, and a per-project audit log on every money/status change.
AI thresholds you control — with work completion always requiring a human confirm, by law.
📋

Project Manager

Money follows proof.

The command centre — approvals, budgets, vendors and QC — where nothing moves on a promise.

Inbox Today — what needs you now, plus a recently-completed strip so nothing vanishes.
Vendor PO acknowledgment — viewed → accept / accept-with-conditions / decline, on record.
Measurement book — actual site quantities per BOQ line, vendor-countersigned via token link.
Certified-quantity final bill — certifies min(measured, ordered); retention, advances and prior payments computed.
DLP retention auto-release when the DLP date passes with zero open snags and a settled bill.
Approval TAT + client chase ladder — 48/72h clocks with automatic polite WhatsApp chasing.
Budget suite — P&L by trade/room/waterfall, BOQ with smart CSV import, variations → BOQ auto-update.
Vendor RFQ pipeline, GRN 3-way match, and payment release with maker/checker separation.
WhatsApp command deck — /milestone, /payments, /vendor, /budget, /quote, /variation, /broadcast, /report.

Site Engineer

Nothing new to learn.

WhatsApp-only. Never sees money. Talks; taps ✅. On day one their behaviour is unchanged.

A two-verb day — 8 AM 🚀 Starting today, 6 PM ✅ Update tasks. Two taps.
Voice notes understood in Hinglish — transcribed, matched to the exact task, one-tap confirm, never auto-closed.
Photos auto-tagged by room and trade, with an action menu (task, issue, client post, expense OCR).
/drawing Q&A from site — the answer arrives with the cropped drawing region.
Pre-start condition walk — photograph every room before mobilising; the firm’s dispute shield.
Material lane — /order requests, /receive GRN at the gate, /cash petty cash with bill-photo OCR.
Sequence-skip protection — out-of-sequence work still records; the PM decides.
🎨

Designer / Estimator

Quote to project, without re-keying.

The front of the funnel — estimation, the client proposal, and a clean handoff into execution.

Quotes pipeline kanban (draft / sent / won / lost) with convert-to-project.
Version Builder estimation — rooms, categories, feet-inches dimensions, catalog + bundles, margins, payment schedule.
Client quote portal — branded proposal, approve / request changes, view tracking, internal approval gate first.
Won → project conversion carrying rooms + BOQ into the setup wizard.
Selections — visual decision points the client picks; the pick locks the BOQ spec.
Documents — GFC stage tagging, versioning, drawing pins; GFC approval gates dependent milestones.
🧾

Accountant / QS

Every rupee, reconciled.

Procurement and finance with a financial toggle — payments, invoices, and cash-flow you can trust.

Payments-due board with approve → release (UTR required); double-release is impossible.
Client invoices + receipts with a 10-week cash-flow forecast, money-in netted against money-out.
Final-bill administration — measurement-based certified bills, retention and recovery math done for you.
Petty cash floats, OCR expenses, and export.
Procurement pipeline — POs, GRN review, 3-way-match exceptions surfaced.
BOQ — any-format smart CSV import, variations, completion tracking, reconcile reports.
🏠

Client

Calm, not chasing.

A branded portal on a token link — no login. Sees curated progress only, never your internals.

Milestone timeline (done / in progress / upcoming), value-delivered progress, curated photos.
A 7 PM evening WhatsApp update — even on quiet days — plus a Saturday weekly summary.
Pre-start acknowledgment — one tap on the site-condition report before work starts.
Approvals in one tap, with polite automatic reminders after 48/72h.
Clean, branded, printable meeting minutes (internal discussion removed).
Never sees costs, margins, internal tasks, blockers or snags — enforced by a whitelist projector.
🏭

Vendor

Quantities only. Never your rates.

A token link — no login. Quotes, POs, measurements and bills, with your margins structurally hidden.

Scope sheets — descriptions, units, quantities, specs; never your client rates or margins.
Quote submission with sub-item breakdowns; drift-flagged re-issues when the BOQ changes.
PO acknowledgment — accept / accept-with-conditions / decline, on record.
Measurement countersign — reviews and countersigns recorded site quantities.
Final bill review — agree or dispute certified quantities before settlement.
Payment tied to QC pass; retention releases automatically after a clean DLP period.
📐

Architect / PMC

Drawings and QC. Money is absent.

A token link — drawings, sign-off and QC. Money is structurally absent, proven at compile time.

Drawings + versions, drawing pins/threads, QC results, and progress.
GFC drawing sign-off and variation sign-off (scope only).
Money is structurally absent — proven at compile time (AssertNoMoney).

The platform underneath

The part that makes it compound.

Automatic for everyone — the AI, the search, the delivery guarantees, and the security posture that make the rest trustworthy.

AI classification of every inbound message (task / issue / approval / decision / update) with confidence-gated confirm cards.
Multimodal search across photos, voice, tasks, issues and logs.
Cross-project intelligence — similar-issue detection, QC benchmarks, progress-photo comparison, vendor issue history.
A drawing-intelligence stack — PDF page images, per-page vision extraction, per-room finishes view, AI room tagging.
A published quality gate — a drawing-QA golden eval; the honest number behind every AI-accuracy claim.
Window-proof WhatsApp — registered utility templates so scheduled and critical sends survive the 24h window.
Delivery monitoring, 12 scheduled crons, an event spine, an AI-guess ledger, and a per-org AI spend guard.
Security posture — RLS everywhere, org-scoped lookups, expiring/revocable tokens, financial document gating, atomic money-path guards, audit log.
